3 Layers- superficial to deep, pg 449
1. Gray matter2. White matter3. Basal Nuclei: aka basal ganglia
![Page 3: Nervous System A &P of the Central](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042117/6257bb35c411885cf37b4318/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
Gray vs. White Matter
Parts of the NEURON
Grey: cell bodies, dendrites
White: axon, myelinated fibers

The Brain
Cerebral Hemispheres: superior part of brain made up of 5 lobes
Frontal, Parietal, Occipital, Temporal lobes and insula
*insula is covered by other lobes
![Page 5: Nervous System A &P of the Central](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042117/6257bb35c411885cf37b4318/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Gyri vs SulciGyri: (gyrus=1) elevated ridges of neural tissue that mark the entire surface of the cerebral hemispheres
Sulci: (sulcus=1) Shallow grooves; a fissure are very deep sulcus separating major regions
Knob: a protruding ‘knob-like’ shape indicate a talent

Association Areas
• Anatomy: prefrontal cortex, temporal lobe, parahippocampal gyrus
• Physiology: comprehend the sensory input, integrates and respond...HOMEOSTASIS

Homeostatic Imbalance- Association Areas
• Tumors/lesions – Anterior:loss of judgement,
attentiveness, inhibitions– Posterior: loss of awareness of
self (personal hygiene)

1. Concussion
Concussion- temporary change in brain function
*blow to the head (dizziness)
*cumulatively damaging
![Page 20: Nervous System A &P of the Central](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042117/6257bb35c411885cf37b4318/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
2. Contusion
• more serious concussion• bruising on the brain• brain stem → coma
![Page 21: Nervous System A &P of the Central](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042117/6257bb35c411885cf37b4318/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
3. Subdural/Subarachnoid Hemorrhage
• bleeding from ruptured vessels into those spaces
• blood accumulates → > pressure to push brain into skull
• >pressure on brain stem = loss of heart rate, bp & respiration
![Page 22: Nervous System A &P of the Central](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042117/6257bb35c411885cf37b4318/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Treating subdural/subarachnoid hemorrahage
• surgical removal of hematoma (blood mass) & repair ruptured vein
![Page 23: Nervous System A &P of the Central](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042117/6257bb35c411885cf37b4318/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
4. Cerebral Edema
• swelling of the brain• intracranial pressure = loss of blood
flow (no O2)
![Page 24: Nervous System A &P of the Central](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042117/6257bb35c411885cf37b4318/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
CerebroVascular Accidents: are strokes that are the most
common neurological disorder
Ischemia: loss of blood flow (deficient oxygen and
nutrient delivery to cells) caused by a blood clot
Transient Ischemic Attacks: (TIA) are temporary strokes; aka WARNING STROKES
![Page 25: Nervous System A &P of the Central](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042117/6257bb35c411885cf37b4318/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Degenerative Brain Disorders
Alzheimer’s Disease: degenerative progression of dementia; brain cells die causing it to shrink, especially the hippocampus.
Parkinson’s Disease: diagnosed in 50’s-60’s, results from the degeneration of the dopamine-releasing neurons
